For a few weeks, in lieu of posting boring updates on my facebook profile, I’d been posting some of my favorite movie quotes from the ‘AFI top 100 of all time’.
Here are some of my own personal favorite movie quotes from some of my favorite movies. Some are really more than quotes. I have a full paragraph speech in here.
WARNING: Some of these aren’t clean. I don’t just watch Disney movies, so if you get offended by the “F” word, and I don’t mean food, then you probably shouldn’t read this.
ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND:
-(Clementine) I’m just a fucked up girl looking for her own peace of mind. Don’t assign me yours.
BRIDGET JONES’ DIARY:
-(Mark Darcy)I like you very much, just as you are
SAY ANYTHING:
-(Lloyd) I gave her my heart and she gave me a pen.
THE GOODBYE GIRL:
-(Eliott) I’m not crazy about the rules
(Paula) You’re not?
(Eliott) Definitely not. I am paying the rent; I will make-a-da rules. I like to take showers every morning and I don’t like the panties drying on the rod. I like to cook so I will use the kitchen whenever I damn well please and I am very particular about my condiments so, keep your salt and pepper to yourself. I also play the guitar in the middle of the night whenever I cannot sleep and I meditate every morning complete with chanting and burning incense so if you’ve got to walk around I’d appreciate a little tip-toeing. Also, I sleep in the nude. Au buffo. Winter and summer rain or snow with the window open and because I may have to go to the potty or to the fridge in the middle of the night and because I don’t want to put on jammies which I do not own in the first place… unless you’re looking for a quick thrill or your daughter an advanced education I would keep my door closed. Thems my rules and regulations how does that grab you?
-(Eliott) Do me the courtesy of hearing me out. Please? You are not the only one who can scream rape, you know?
-(Eliott) You really ought to try some of this, you know? It’s got whole bran in it. My feeling is that your whole problem stems from irregularity.
-(Eliott) Miss McFadden, this morning I start rehearsals for my very first New York play. Probably the most important day of my life. Am I nervous? No, I am not nervous. Because I have meditated I am relaxed, I am calm, I am confident. You, on the other hand, have not meditated. Therefore you are a pain in the ass.
AMERICAN BEAUTY:
-(Lester) Her husband. We’ve met before, but something tells me you’re going to remember me this time.
-(Lester) This isn’t life, it’s just stuff. And it’s become more important to you than living. Well, honey, that’s just nuts.
BATMAN:
-(Joker) You ever danced with the devil in the pale moonlight?
FIGHT CLUB:
-(Tyler) Sticking feathers up your butt does not make you a chicken.
-(Tyler) You’re not your job. You’re not how much money you have in the bank. You’re not the car you drive. You’re not the contents of your wallet. You’re not your fucking khakis. You’re the all-singing, all-dancing crap of the world.
-(Narrator) Tyler sold his soap to department stores at $20 a bar. Lord knows what they charged. It was beautiful. We were selling rich women their own fat asses back to them.
-(Tyler) You are not a beautiful and unique snowflake. You are the same decaying organic matter as everyone else, and we are all part of the same compost pile.
BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN:
-(Jack) I wish I knew how to quit you.
IN THE HEAT OF THE NIGHT:
-(Virgil Tibbs)They call me MR.TIBBS
GONE WITH THE WIND:
-(Rhett) Frankly my dear, I don’t give a damn
PSYCHO:
-(Norman Bates)We all go a little mad sometimes.
CLERKS:
-(Randal)This job would be great if it wasn’t for the fucking customers.
PRINCESS BRIDE:
-(Wesley) As you wish
-(Inigo) My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.
-(Inigo) I want my father back, you son of a bitch.
PULP FICTION:
-(Jules) “What” ain’t no country I ever heard of. They speak English in what?
-(Jules) Oh I’m sorry, did I break your concentration?
SNATCH:
-(Bullet tooth) You should never underestimate the predictability of stupidity.
BEAUTY AND THE BEAST:
-(Beast) I want to do something for her, but what?
(Cogsworth) Well, there’s the usual things: flowers… chocolates… promises you don’t intend to keep…
-(Narrator) As the years passed, he fell into despair and lost all hope. For who could ever learn to love a beast?
-(Lumiere) But what is dinner, without a little, music.
OFFICE SPACE:
-(Milton) My stapler
AS GOOD AS IT GETS:
-(Melvin) You make me want to be a better man
SOME KIND OF WONDERFUL:
-(Watts) Break his heart, I’ll break your face.
SIXTEEN CANDLES:
-(Jim Baker) That’s why they call them crushes. If they were easy, they’d call them something else.
THE USUAL SUSPECTS:
-(VERBAL) After that my guess is that you will never hear from him again. The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he did not exist. And like that… he is gone.
SEVEN:
-(John Doe) Wanting people to listen, you can’t just tap them on the shoulder anymore. You have to hit them with a sledgehammer, and then you’ll notice you’ve got their strict attention.
-(David) C’mon, he’s insane. Look. Right now he’s probably dancing around in his grandma’s panties, yeah, rubbing himself in peanut butter.
-(Somerset) If John Doe’s head splits open and a UFO should fly out, I want you to have expected it.
BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA:
-(Jack Burton) Are you crazy… Is that your problem?
SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION:
-(Andy) Yeah. The funny thing is – on the outside, I was an honest man, straight as an arrow. I had to come to prison to be a crook.
-(Red) Get busy livin’, or get busy dyin’
THE GREEN MILE:
-(John Coffey) Do you leave a light on after bedtime? Because I get a little scared in the dark sometimes. If it’s a strange place.
-(Delacroix) I thank you. Mr. Jingles thank you, my mom would thank you too but she’s dead.
-( John Coffey) He kill them wi’ their love. Wi’ their love fo’ each other. That’s how it is, every day, all over the world.
ALL ABOUT EVE:
-(Margot) Nice speech, Eve. But I wouldn’t worry too much about your heart. You can always put that award where your heart ought to be.
CAT ON A HOT TIN ROOF:
-(Maggie) I’m not living with you! We occupy the same cage, that’s all.
Incredibly great read. Honest.
